Seems you don`t have a choice, you need to hard reset your device.

steps: - remove the battery for 10 sec then put it back - now phone is completely shut down, press and hold Volume up, Home button and power key for 5-10 sec until the logo of android appear
- when you see android logo release the 3 button then wait a few sec. until the recovery mode will appear in the screen
- now you are in the recovery mode (sign that you are in recovery mode "yellow text and black background)
- to control navigation, press volume up and down to move upward and downward the highlights, and Home button to select also the power key to back in case of emergency.
- now select wipe data/factory resey, use volume and home button
- tap YES then the process will start
- just wait until it finish
- first boot after Hard reset can take 2-3 min.
- done.

I think There is no other option for you but to hard reset your phone using the hardware button.However all you files will be wiped out or simply permanently deleted. to reset your phone just hold the Power button+ volume up + menu button. Hold the three buttons simultaneously until the phone reboots and open in the recovery menu. Just select the option wipe data/ factory reset using the volume down key and confirm this by using the menu button. After the process select the reboot now option and confirm using the menu button. Then your phone will restart and open in the default factory setting. hope it helps.

You can do a factory reset on your phone to get back in, but doing so will erase all your user data and installed apps. to do the factory reset, power off your phone, then boot into recovery mode by pressing/holding volume up + power button. release the buttons when you see bootloader mode and select recovery mode. In recovery mode, navigate to Wipe Data/Factory reset and select it. Reboot when done and you should be able to get into your phone.
